How fast is the frequency of precipitation extremes doubling in global land regions? by Guillaume Chagnaud, Juliette Blanchet, Guillaume Evin, Benoit Hingray, Thierry Lebel, Geremy Panthou, Théo Vischel

“…Contextualizing the potential future consequences of precipitation intensification in a current temporal frame of reference may help perceive climate change as an ongoing phenomenon, in turn encouraging adaptation planning. Using an ensemble of climate models from Phase 6 of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP6) in a non-stationary extreme value framework, we quantify the time it takes for the frequency of extreme 1-day and 7-day precipitation accumulations –as estimated in the current climate– to double; the frequency double time (FDT) is estimated for a range of event rarities over land regions. …”
